Donut & Text-to-speech

Hi Guys,
Been a long time since I posted on this forum, back in the days of my T-Mobile MDA Vario! Thankfully moved on to a better operating system in the shape of Google's Android. Any way my question relates to the new Donut (1.6) update. I've had a read off the features for this update from the Google Android website but i'm having trouble using some of them.
http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-1.6-highlights.html
Text-to-speech
I've activated the settings for this in the Settings menu and downloaded the necessary voice pack from the market but so far can't seem to get it to work. Ideally i want it to be able to read back my text messages as this is very handy for when driving, but i can't find any options to turn this on. Anyone got any ideas?
Voice Dialling
Another feature useful while driving (hands free of course) and the normal way on most phones is of course to press and hold a certain button. I think I must have tried every button for this one but still can't find it.
Any help you guys can give would be great thanks.

Voice Dialing (and Voice Search) is not installed outside of US (and maybe AU).
If it was, you would have a microphone icon beside the google search button.
And for Voice dialing, you could just long press the green dial button (physical button)

oh right didn't realise that was a US only feature, guess I can wait till éclair for them to roll it out here. Any update on text-to-speech?

Try the application TalkBack . (it might be already installed on your phone, or install from market).
You can activate it in Settings-Accessibility. Then android menus/popups/... will be talked to you !
(you should also install Text-To-Speech Extended from market )

[Q] A few questions on the ATT GS4

I got my phone yesterday and charged it up etc. I have been giving it a work out trying to get all I could for customizing it as stock.
1 ST ? is how do I get this "air swipe" thing to work? I have all I can find in the settings / air gesture. All the buttons are set to on and it says there is an icon on the status bar with a hand on it, mine don't show the hand and only holding a finger over such as email will it show content. How do I activate and get the air stuff to work?
2nd ? is this, I was out of town and on my way home I stopped at a Best Buy, there happened to be a Samsung rep in the store with a display out, he let me play with his working demo and I asked a lot of questions. He showed me the phone dialer and said on the ATT version it comes out with a white key pad but the dialer could be "customized" to be a pale blue which his was, but he couldn't get the settings to come up to show me how. Does anyone know where this is changed to make the dialer blue with the contact showing a background as blue ? I don't know which version his demo was but I am assuming it was the international version possibly.
3 rd ? Being used to the ATT HTC One X , when arranging apps on the screen it was possible to merge two or more apps into one folder, on this phone I can't seem to put any apps together in one folder, is this not possible on this phone?
4th ? I was talking with the rep and mentioned I like to "tinker" with custom roms as I rooted , unlocked and S-OFF on the HTC One. Further I told him about reading the dev web site and rooting the new GS4 and as of yet no custom recovery. HE said that would void the "carrier" warranty but didn't say anything about manufacture warranty, so is it void also?
I am sure as I get deeper into this phone I am going to have more questions, so any help with this would be appreciated .

I do not see any setting for a pale blue dialr either.
As for the folders; When viewing either your home screen or all of your apps, hit the menu key and choose create folder. After creatung the folder, hit the menu key again and choose edit. When the screen adjusts you can drag icons into the newly created folder.

Thank you, well I had this phone in my hands yesterday and the guy had a shirt on that said he was Samsung inside a Best Buy in Arkansas. He did tell me that the ATT version came out with a white dialer , which mine has but his had a blue dialer. He told me there was a setting to change it to blue or ??? but at the time he couldn't find it. I think I have been all around the phone inside but I can't find anything like that and can't get the air thing to work right. He just waved his hand over the screen and it changed screens. I can hover a finger over the email and read inside without actually opening the email. He said this was another "air" feature but it only worked on the Samsung email app. If using , yahoo or gmail or some other app for email it wouldn't work.

Yes , I am pretty sure they have cell phones in Arkansas, in fact the local Walmart does a big business in supplying most of the county here. I had a conversation with the Samsung Tech dept. come to find out that feature is only available on the International version. Asked why the Samsung rep was demonstrating a International version at a Best Buy in Arkansas, I was given no answer. After being guided thru the booting of the boot loader, and a cache wipe , then a reset and then a factory reset, I think the feature of the air thing is working, not like I assumed it was supposed to but its almost an air feature I think.

If you want to make folders the easy way (dragging apps together), just use Nova or another 3rd party launcher.

Remove the bleepin Google Assistant from the 6P

It was with great horror that I discovered that Google is now forcing the effin' Google Assistant down our throats. Home long press now launches this abomination of an app. Quickly figured out how to disable the crapware, but nowong press of home does nothing. So Google, of you are reading this....
I DON'T WANT TO BE TALKING TO MY PHONE ALL THE TIME, I HAVE A LIFE AND PEOPLE TO TALK TO.
Is there a way to recover the old functionality? I want long press to launch the old style Google app. If no, what is the version of the last update that does not include this POS software? I had not updated for a while and now this...
Apologies for fuming, it is just so freaking invasive on Google's part to ot even ask if I want to opt in.
PS setting ro.opa.eligible_device=false does NOT do the trick. Grrrr, this is getting more annoying by the minute

Someone on Reddit says you can change your language to US Virgin Islands to get the old now on tap back if that's what you're wanting. I haven't tried this myself though.

Yes, this works, the original source may be here
https://android.gadgethacks.com/how...ndroid-device-switch-back-google-now-0174676/
Unfortunately editing the build.prop does not seem to do the trick for me. I have to wonder how long before Google screws up that workaround.
I am curious, is there ANYONE out there who wants to ALWAYS talk to their phone and have the phone talk to them. Say you are in the middle of a meeting and want to quickly check on something. What is Google thinking? Or am I missing something?

You can still type in searches using the Google search bar without talking. I prefer Google Assistant to the old functionality but I guess everyone uses their phone differently. Most people likely consider GA an enhancement rather than an intrusion like you do. Many people were unhappy that it was only offered officially on the Pixel but you can't please everybody.

All you have to do is turn GA off within settings.

Sadly this is not true. When you disable it in settings and long press home it pops up and says, Google Assistant is currently disabled, would you like to enable it? Options for yes or no. Yes pops up with assistant and no just disabled the window with no further actions. It doesn't revert to the old now on tap functionality.

i want to delete Google Assistant permanently, any clue ?

I'm surprised this thread doesn't have more attention. Before I had assistant I was trying to get it early on my device but now I am trying to go back to now on tap just because of the ease of use and time it takes to get to google.
The best workaround I found was this SwipeUp utility app. You can press and hold either your home button or fingerprint scanner to open straight to the Google app instead of the popup assistant (which is basically a blank screen until you say something or press on the keyboard symbol to type a search) it works really well.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.AdrianCampos.swipeuputility

No solution's to this yet? This is absurd.

@tolol @applePhx in this thread someone recommends deleting the Google Home App folder from /system using twrp to get completely rid of Google Assistant. Haven't tested it though

No need to delete it at all. Having it posted again helps. I just felt that the person who actually came up with it deserves some credit too. I think their login was Beut.

[FRP] LG Stylo 3 FRP Bypass - Tracfone LGL83BL

[FRP] LG Stylo 3 FRP Bypass - Tracfone LGL83BL
This phone was hard at first to figure out due to certain areas being framed in for me for whatever reason. However after Hard Resetting a few times I was able to get where i wanted to start. This tutorial is based off a handful of methods from research I did. It works perfect for this model. There is no hardware methods so this must be done manually.
I'm hoping you have some experience manually removing FRP already before reading this. I'm trying to keep it short and simple. I suck at videos but maybe I will get around to making some eventually one day.
Steps
1. HARD RESET your phone. Make sure you do this before starting the next step.
2. Connect to wifi and go back to the start and get into accessibility mode. Enable Global Context Menu by making an L shape on the screen. Goto TalkBack Settings. Once you are in press both volume keys to suspend Talkback. Scroll down to the bottom and select Help and Feedback. Click on where it says About Switch Access for Android (if this is framed in a window then hard reset and restart again). This should take you to the Help section with About Switch Access for Android at the top with a youtube video at the bottom.
3. Click the youtube video and click the share button (arrow at the top right). This should show you a box with the link highlighted. Double tap this to open up YouTube. Once youtube is opened click the share button at the top right once again and this time you will be presented with where to share to. Click on Gmail. At this point pause and create a hotmail account on another device or use one of your own if you have it handy. Yahoo did not work for me so I stuck with hotmail. Forward on into gmail and select hotmail, fill out the information, and forward on until it says Take Me To Gmail at the bottom. Click this and then click the top right 3 dots and goto settings. Click the top 3 dots again then click manage accounts. You should be in settings now.
4. Scroll down to Fingerprints and Security and click this. Goto Phone Administration and disable Android Device Manager. Next goto Apps section of Settings. Click top right 3 dots and select show all apps. Scroll down to Setup Wizard, you should see 2. Disable/Force stop and clear cache/data on both. Now scroll up to Google Account Manager and repeat previous process then onto Google Play Service doing the same. Restart your phone.
5. Suspend TalkBack by pressing both up/down volume buttons and go forward in settings until you get to wifi. Disable wifi. Follow through until you get to the EULA. Scroll down in this box until you see the Heading OptOut. This next part can be a little tricky. Tap on where it says [email protected]. A box should pop up at the bottom if it doesn't double click or click and hold. I had to double tap the area and hold before it would appear. In this box click Gmail and when prompted enable Google Play Services. After this you should arrive back where you were at OptOut section of the EULA. Tap the email again and it will take you into Gmail. Click the top right 3 dots as you did before, repeat earlier process again, and get into Settings. Go back to Fingerprints and Security and enable Unknown Sources. Next turn on wifi.
6. Go back on settings then goto Apps. Scroll down to YouTube and click it. Click Notifications then click the top right icon ( i ). Next click About then click on Google Privacy Policy and forward into the browser. Now you are going to download some apps and install them. Download these 3 apps and install/open each during the process. The apps are Sidebar / Quick Shortcut Maker / Shortcut Master Lite. Open up Sidebar by using two fingers and swiping over from the left side of the screen. Once it slides into view add all 3 apps except for sidebar to it and also add Settings. If you want to pause here and pick up later thats fine as sidebar will be able to be used even if the phone is rebooted.
7. Now click on settings and goto Apps, tap 3 dots, select show system apps and now you are going to Disable/Force Stop and clear cache/data of all these apps. Google App / Google Backup Transport / Google Calender Sync / Google Contacts Sync / Google Drive Promotion / Google One Time Init / Google Partner Setup / Google Play Services / Google Play Store / Google Services Framework / Google Text-To-Speech Engine / Setup Wizard (both).
8. Now pull into view the Sidebar and click on Shortcut Master Lite. Click on the top right 3 dots and click search. Type Setup Wizard into the bottom search field and click search. Now click on the first Setup Wizard link that shows. com.android.LGSetupWizard.SetupHomeInit and click launch.
9. You should be back at the setup screen. Forward through until you get to wifi and shut it off.
10. Now comes the last but fun part. We are going to crash the Setup Wizard. Go back to the start screen of the setup wizard and repeadtly go forward and back until the app crashes and do this until you see the home screen (remind you of iphone glitches? ha) it WILL work just have to do it many times. Once you get to the home screen, go into settings and enable developer mode then get into developer mode and enable OEM Unlock next goto Backup and Reset and reset your phone. DONE. Enjoy your phone now.
EDIT:
Here are easier more precise instructions for this last step:
Press [ARROW ICON]
Next [SKIP]
Then [NEXT]
Press [SKIP ANYWAY]
Then tap 3-4 times quickly on [BACK KEY] where you should end up on "Welcome Screen"
Repeat the above steps another time or 2 if it has not worked yet. It will! Sometimes it takes a try or two!
Alternative to Step 10. Click on quickshortcut maker from your sidebar and scroll down until you see Home and click it. You should now be past the setup wizard and onto your Home Screen. Not done just yet. Click on Shortcutmaster Lite and it will bring you to your Home Screen. Now you are officially past everything. (Pretty sure this method doesn't work for the LGL83BL but I figured I would mention it incase it just didn't work for me for w/e reason). Go into settings and enable developer mode then get into developer mode and enable OEM Unlock next goto Backup and Reset and reset your phone. DONE. Enjoy your phone now.

Also works on: LG Aristo MS210, (more to add soon)

how many times?
I have tried several times and nothing happens and my phone is exactly Tracfone LGL83BL I hope you make a video soon

It's trial and error. Just keep going back and fourth quickly and eventually it will work. You've got to be quick about it in order for it to work.

hey man, I made an account just to get help from you. I have the same problem as the guy before. Ive done all the steps correctly and got to the very last part about crashing the setup wizard. I have done it very quickly many many times and nothing seems to work. And even when it does "crash" it just opens right back up ;/

I will try to get a video up showing you what I am doing. There is pretty much nothing to it. You push forward till it errors hit ok. Go back then forward, hit ok, go back and forward. Even try going back to the beginning then all the way forward. Go back and forward through different pages of the setup wizard. Trial and error. This DOES work. Trust me. I have used it to bypass multiple LG devices so far.

Still have been too busy to edit the video and get it online. Here is another approach that *should* work. Just try pushing forward as fast as you can until you hit the error then hit ok and keep going forward. Do it quickly.

I don't have it online. I have been far to busy so I've not had the time to get around to editing it. The method is pretty simple. You shouldn't really need the video but again I understand everyone learns differently. I have noticed there are some similar ways as mine on youtube so you might find something there. In order for mine to go up I have to 1) edit 2) add sound 3) add watermark and ad's and then get it up on a youtube channel of mine I haven't entirely finished. I would just post it but I want to get the most out of my videos when i can.
Which part are you stuck on? Maybe I can help you some.

I understand completely and thanks for you're reply.
I have downloaded the LG bypass tool.exe and when I put the phone into download mode and select phone that I have nothing starts. Then I have tried the other method which is getting to a browser on the phone through the privacy statement then searching for and downloading the bypass tool straight to the phone and then I cannot find the downloaded file on the phone to extract & run it.
I'm no expert at this sort of thing but I know a little bit. Do you think rooting the device would bypass it or a new SIM card. What should I try next bc in really kinda stuck now that all info I've tried had failed or doesn't work for the LG stylo LS-777.
Thanks

You will end up doing more than just running a file to bypass it. You will have to kill running processes etc then crash the Setup Wizard. You won't be able to root it because you can't get USB Debugging enabled. New sim card won't do anything either. If you follow my method i'm sure you will bypass it. =]

Thanks will try it. Do you have an idea when your video will be ready?

Not too sure. I haven't had a while free from work yet.

So before.... long before I do this, I would like to verify that you bypassed the FRP and were able to get /su? if so we could really use some photos from your (yet to be released video) as verification... if so this is amazing but man that's a lot of steps for something to go wrong. I'm really wanting to try it. 75% of my rooting has been done on Samsung which thanks to chainfire was literally "1 click" that came sometime after the whole adb shell push /su and that good good stuff. I'll wait for your reply before I take the plunge.. its my only device as of right now so I really don't want to screw this one up rofl. Anyways thanks so much!

Stuck
I have the metro pcs version of the stylo3 (lgms450) and I'm having a very difficult time bypassing the frp. So far, your method had gotten me further than any other but I'm stuck at the eula page. The email address is not, does not and will not highlight nor will any box appear at the bottom no matter how many times or the configuration of me pressing on that email address. I get a little haptic feedback but nothing else. Any ideas?

I'll wait for your reply before I take the plunge.. its my only device as of right now so I really don't want to screw this one up rofl. Anyways thanks so much!

Well FRP and Superuser, rooting and what not are all different things. What we are trying to accomplish here is FRP Removal via manual method not needing root on the device. I will release the video within a few days. Don't laugh at the quality as it was done with another phone and didn't really think it would take on enough for me to put online so I didn't go for professionalism. Hey it works though and you might have to pause time to time as i go through quickly at times but you will see.
This method hasn't screwed anything up for me so far and the way it is done really in theory shouldn't. Any mess simply factory reset and it is ready again. If that fails you can flash the firmware and all will be well.

I have the metro pcs version of the stylo3 (lgms450) and I'm having a very difficult time bypassing the frp. So far, your method had gotten me further than any other but I'm stuck at the eula page. The email address is not, does not and will not highlight nor will any box appear at the bottom no matter how many times or the configuration of me pressing on that email address. I get a little haptic feedback but nothing else. Any ideas?

Hmm. I need to try to get ahold of that model and try a few things. All my stylos went out to customers. I might have some ideas on how to get you around all of that. Just need to test them on something similar. Have one in mind, if a friend still has it i will take a look.

@kryste1 Thank you! I figured a straight through text tutorial might help better as some of these videos are hard to understand for a lot of reasons.
